It is more like an observation or a hypothesis(depending on whether you have done the experiment or not).
The law is the thermal expansion of gasses (Henry's Law).
The theory is that a (lightweight) balloon filled with enough air that is hot enough will rise.

Heating the air in a hot air balloon causes the balloons to rise is it a law or theory?
it is the law of gravity. Heating the air causes the molecules to speed up separate and the volume expands so the mass is less per sq inch and thus the pull of gravity from earth is diminished. The balloon rises to an area where the volume of surrounding gases is equal.

Is heating the air in a hot-air balloon cause the to rise a theory or a law?
The law is called Law of Buoyancy, matter with less density tries to raise above the matter with high density. When air is heated, the volume increases and density decreases. Since the air around the ballon is at a lower temperature and the density is higher, the air in the baloon tries to move up thus lifting the baloon.
How much air fills a hot air balloon?
In theory, the larger the envelope on a hot air balloon (or the warmer the air inside compared to the ambient temperature outside), the more lifting force the balloon has. To answer your question, there is no single answer. Hot air balloons range in size from 70,000 cubic feet to over 200,000 cubic feet. (The "cubic feet" measurement refers to the volume of air inside the balloon envelope). Special shaped balloons can be enormous. The Energizer Bunny balloon is 15 feet taller than the Statue of Liberty. The ears alone are sixty feet...which is the height of an entire average-sized hot air balloon.
